A few years ago, I watched a 10-minute clip from an EBS documentary on YouTube.
The video revealed the edge of the observable universe, and I was shocked to learn that its diameter is an astonishing 93 billion light-years.
To put that in perspective, light can circle the Earth seven and a half times in a single second—and yet, the universe is so unimaginably vast that our existence seems no more than a speck of dust.

From the moment we are born, we are taught to become someone great, to live a successful life. But what exactly does “success” mean, and who gets to define it? Even if we live a hundred years, it is still just a fleeting moment in the grand scale of time.
We are undoubtedly precious beings.
But the obsession with living an extraordinary life—constantly chasing greatness—is something we should learn to let go of. What truly matters is living the life we want right now, and finding happiness in each passing moment.
If we are not happy today, we will not magically become happy tomorrow.
A life that seeks happiness, not greatness—that is the path we must walk, thoughtfully and intentionally.
